“This is a great book for all cardiologists. It can strengthen one's understanding of acute decompensated heart failure and its management. It is certainly a must read for cardiology fellows, especially those pursuing the subspecialty of heart failure. I would recommend this book to all my colleagues in the discipline of cardiology.” (Sanbir S. Sidhu, Doody's Book Reviews, August, 2018)
Clinical cases are a key component in modern medical education, assisting the trainee or recertifying clinician to work through unusual cases using best practice techniques. Cardiology is a key discipline in this regard and is a highly visual subject requiring the reader to describe often very subtle differences in the presentation of patients and define accurately the diagnostic and management criteria on which to base their clinical decision-making. This title therefore provides valuable assistance to trainees and clinicians alike in evaluating patientsand defining an appropriate procedure for each case covered.
